FiveEvil RPG

FiveEvil – A modern horror setting for 5th Edition

FiveEvil is a standalone horror roleplaying game from Handiwork Games. The same fiendish minds behind BEOWULF Age of Heroes, a|state second edition and Maskwitches of Forgotten Doggerland. It’s been carefully crafted to evoke the horror genre by cleverly twisting the underlying fifth edition ruleset. FiveEvil subverts fifth edition play to defy expectations and concentrate the horror.

By taking rules you know, and twisting them up, FiveEvil creates a truly intense and unsettling horror gaming experience. It’s packed with advice and ideas on how to create the very best horror gaming sessions. The primary setting focus is modern day horror, inspired by the work of Stephen King, and moody, character-driven horror films like The Ritual, The Descent and Jacob’s Ladder, alongside mini-series like Midnight Mass by Mike Flanagan, and the scariest of Twin Peaks episodes.

Rather than seeking out evil in order to vanquish it, or investigating clues to battle malign influence, characters in FiveEvil are regular people trapped in a terrifying situation just attempting to survive and escape.

Created and written by Morgan Davie, FiveEvil features art by Scott Purdy and Jon Hodgson, and boasts graphic design and layout by Paul Bourne.

This standalone core book contains:

• All the rules you need to create characters and play the game
• Five sample adventures to show you how best to run FiveEvil
• Tons of customisability and replay value.
